Lot #1Maths ChampionCancelledPublished value£100,000

We want to appoint a team that can work with the EEF to provide capability building support to projects that have been identified as requiring support to scale. We are looking for a team to work closely with two projects, with the potential for further projects to attend joint workshops. The EEF has worked with projects to identify areas where support is needed. This support falls into two broad categories: (1) Train the trainer models, and (2) Quality assurance systems at scale.

    b. Experience of capability building in relation to scaling with similar education projects.

    c. Specific expertise relating to train-the-trainer models and quality assurance systems.

    c. Demonstrates quality and suitability of the proposed capability building approach (including how to ensure engagement and buy-in from projects).

What this means for your bid
  • Price carries 25 of 100 points: a 10% discount moves about 2.5 points. The method statement decides this lot, not the discount.

Price arithmetic assumes straight proportional scoring; the tender pack may use another formula.
